That was the only game my dearly departed dad and I attended together. He went into the Park End were he knew the Rovers fans would be and I went onto the Goodison Road terrace. A largely undistinguished game, but the performance of Jim Cumbes in the Rovers goal kept the score down.

The current batch of Belgian players. Is this their golden generation? KDB, Hazard, Courtois, even Lukaku, are just on their way down from their best. If Batshuayi was hailed as the new breed but he's turned out cack. I hope we're not blinded by the Belgian tag, pretty much as we were when...

Shakes head in disbelief.

Too many Parmos

Just read other posts. He was sent off.

A massively intense game that. Full on. Didn't Ratcliffe, complete with moustache, get sent off towards the end?

Varadi took the ball around the keeper earlier but missed the goal. Frustrating player to say the least.

Siggy should have had a bagful. BTW he was a miserable sod yesterday.

Just had my first chance to see the game highlights on TV. A full half hour of it as I was in the gym, no soundtrack, just from the wall mounted screens. I could hardly believe my eyes. Such a one sided game which everyone agrees should have been won by more than the one goal. Well done to them...

Please not. We all know what happens when our players disappear for international duty.

Fair enough!

Too true with the platforms. The como shoes were the most comfy as well.

Picture this. An almost orange corduroy jacket with a pair of light green parallel kecks and black como shoes complete with a lookalike Ben Sherman shirt. What a mess.

Certainty were. A whole array of premises just outside the city centre retail area.

Not footie related, but looking at the pic takes me back fifty years and more. The street leading up at an angle contained a warehouse where my mam was able to cash her Sturla's cheque and kit me out in clothes. Not the best quality or choice but it was the only way I got new clothes on my back.
